If only all Star Wars was made this well.
Damn that was the best 40ish minutes of Star Wars in a long time but even had time to through in some gorgeous shots to boot. This is kind of how I imagined a more serious SW show to be, dont get me wrong, plucky, jovial robots have their place in this universe but they are so over used as comic relief in this series it was nice to go a few episodes with out one.
Diego Luna is fast becoming one of my fave tv actors, he is so compelling as Andor and the way he gunned down Skeen without a second thought was cold but in a good way, he knows what it takes to survive in this universe which feels far more dangerous and cut throught than any other attempt at SW underground. You cant even trust the Rebels these days, sheesh.
It was a simple heist story but it was executed to perfection and those MGS opening vibes underwater, were just perfection.
